Lupe Fiasco - Bars Dedicated to DL Hughley lyrics

George Carlin was one of the smartest men I've ever heard Challenged you through his comedy and displayed the power of words My brother Dave Chappelle is a genius through his show you saw the proof Wittily exposed the lies and had us laughing at the truth Foxworthy, Katt, Chris Rock, Richard Pryor, Dick Gregory was the king But from your shows it must be told I never learned a f**ing thing Eddie Griffin through his riffin' appeals to a higher sense of purpose Takes our darkest deepest ignorances and pulls them to the surface Turns them into food for thought, it's funny but you thinking A comics power is they use the fun to overcome forgive me if I'm reaching They always spoke the truth to power in a disguised and friendly bit Only a comic can diss a president and even have him laughing at the sh** What happened to that? Strong social critiques thru thoughtful comedic jabs? But you'd rather do "yo mama" jokes cause some heckler got you mad I hate to break the news, but I love that it will be spoke You didn't take your comedy seriously, so now YOU are the f**ing joke!
